Quakertown Borough Ch. 27 Part 6 requires off-street parking per Table 6.1. Single-family spaces: 10 ft wide x 20 ft deep via driveway, carport, or garage. All off-street areas must be separated from roads. Stormwater management applies to impervious surfaces.
Quakertown Borough zoning (Chapter 27, Part 6) establishes off-street parking and loading requirements. For single-family detached units, parking requirements may be fulfilled by driveway, carport, garage, or combination, with each space at least 10 feet wide and 20 feet deep. All areas for off-street parking and vehicle movement must be physically separated from highways by appropriate barriers. No yard, open space, or parking space required for one building may be counted toward requirements for another building. The Borough's grading and excavation regulations (Chapter 9) apply to new driveway construction. The PA Uniform Construction Code (UCC) adopted by the Borough governs building and site work permits.
Non-compliant parking areas: zoning violation. Unauthorized grading/excavation: separate violation.
